An interactive group bible study for people without degree's in theology.

Jesus the Christ was an enlightened teacher of consciousness. Like the Buddha and other enlightened beings over the ages, he was born to this world to show us how to master our minds, to teach us how to inwardly align ourselves to a Universal, Infinite, Loving, Creative Intelligence, and to demonstrate how to master the Law of Cause and Effect. "Let’s Get Metaphysical" digs deeper into the teachings of Jesus to unearth Divine Truth. Jesus spoke in code, requiring us to turn inward, reflect, and de-code the metaphysical Truth behind his teachings. Like the morning sun, the hidden meaning ...

First-century Jews converted to Christianity in droves because they understood Jesus fulfilled what was foreshadowed in their Sacred Scriptures. Because the Greek Septuagint version of the Old Testament was so Christocentric, they could easily see Jesus as the Paschal Lamb, the Last Supper as a new Passover, and Mary as the Ark of the Covenant. Other stories, too, such as the story of Jonah and the large fish, Jael and Judith, Rahab the prostitute, Boaz and Ruth, Noah’s Ark, the crossing of the Jordan, and the water from the Rock that Moses struck – were all seen as pointing to Christ, ...

Or would you have rejected Him? Immerse yourself in the culture, customs, and traditions of the ancient Jewish people and imagine what it might have been like to encounter Jesus. In a predictable Jewish life, something unpredictable...

Forgetting those things which are behind. — Phil. 3:13 WE have here St. Paul's plan of life — progress by forgetting, by letting go, the things that are past. "Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal." This is such a wise theory of life that we may profitably study it a few minutes. "Forgetting the things which are behind." There are some things we would like to forget. Probably most of us have done things we would give much to leave behind, to blot out from memory, to cut altogether loose from, to bury in...
